Yet another excellent build around card - seemed like the perfect direction to go for this deck. That's when I remembered good 'ol Isperia the Inscrutable.

I really wanted a general that made flying matter, and could push the deck over the edge. However, Jenara doesn't really care about flying - she just has flying. In fact, Jenara would make a pretty solid general for this. There aren't many mono-green flyers to speak of (with a notable exception of Birds of Paradise), but Sigarda, Host of Herons and Jenara, Asura of War seemed like strong options for inclusion. Plus, white is a great backup color for removal such as Kirtar's Wrath (heh, it makes fliers) and Path to Exile. Baneslayer Angel, Karmic Guide, Restoration Angel. White is another standout here: Angels and WU Sphinxes are pretty solid. And don't forget Mulldrifter, Draining Whelk, and Djinn of Wishes! There are too many exciting blue flying dudes to skip this one. Step 1: who do we want as a general?īlue is a no brainer: first of all, the earlier build around cards are blue, and secondly most of the awesome fliers in Magic's history are blue: Consecrated Sphinx, Keiga, the Tide Star, and Sphinx of Uthuun to name a few. So, we know the end goal: make a deck that likes everything that flies and hates everything that doesn't. In retrospect, it seems like such a simple premise that surely everyone does something like that when they're first learning the game, but I never really got around to it.

It occurred to me that, since I typically end up playing low creature count decks, I really never committed to a deck all about flying before. There are just some cards out there that yell 'BUILD AROUND ME!' and these two are both lovely examples that happen to work very nicely with one another. However, I did get two interesting pulls: Warden of Evos Isle and Windreader Sphinx. I didn't get any Mutavaults or Scavenging Oozes, and although I was stoked about Strionic Resonator and Young Pyromancer, not a lot else was really there to get excited for.

I'd opened a handful of packs, but nothing really great was in them. Story time: it's July 2013, and Magic 2014 just got released. Grand Arbiter Augstin IV (makes Bruna a 4 drop)Īnd i havent done lands yet but i have a pretty good idea of what i'd want to do

I am currently working on a Bruna, Light of Alabaster deck for myself and I am having difficulty with deciding limiting it down to 100 cards :/ I would like to free up 6 spaces so I can put in some counter spells and Serra Ascedent and/or Bribery.

I am a huge fan of elder dragon highlander and have built one full kaalia deck and have helped my friends build their own decks on various occausions. This is my first time on MTG Salvation as an active member. Returning permanents en mass to their owner’s hands sounds like a good plan, and when done carefully, Displacement Wave will even leave behind permanents like Shared Fate so it can continue to cause more mayhem. I need to survive the game until I’m ready to cause some mayhem, and one of the ways I can do that is by slowing my opponents down. I’ve initially thought about creating a scaling “envy” deck using Yasova Dragonclaw ( Maelstrom Wanderer would have been better, but Yasova is all I have at the moment), and originally, it was to include all sorts of cloning, copying, stealing, and swapping effects to take advantage of the best creatures and spells that opponents had to offer.Ĭhaotic, high-impact spells, however, often have ridiculously high mana costs, and I’ll mostly likely be overrun by my hasty opponents who have come bursting out of the gates if I just rely on my land drops to hit 6 (or more) mana. Because of this, I’ve been toying with the idea of making a fun, chaotic, deck for my blue-green-red commander. A very mindful, analytical, and diplomatic tactician in real life, Kira sought an escape in Magic by playing a persona that allows her to throw caution to the wind. My close friend, Kira, said that the reason she disliked building a Commander deck that had blue as part of its color identity was that she hated to overthink when playing a game.
